Reinforced Earth® technology is ideally suited for support of track bed, bridge and trestle abutments, earth retention structures adjacent to right of ways, and for deflector walls to protect bridge piers from impact in the event of a derailment. Reinforced Earth’s high load-carrying capacity and resistance to both vibration and stray currents make them a preferred solution for use on light rail, freight train, and high speed railway projects.
